Steroids

Adrenaline is produced by the adrenal glands, which sit on top of either kidney. The hormone, more commonly called epinephrine in the scientific and medical communities, is also often called the "fight or flight" hormone, since it's released in response to severe stress or threat. Explains Dr. Lauralee Sherwood in her book "Human Physiology," adrenaline increases heart rate, respiration rate, availability of glucose to fuel muscles, and blood flow to the muscles, helping to prepare the body to fight or flee an attack.

Because both testosterone and adrenaline are associated with strength and vigor in some regard--testosterone because it leads to increased musculature and adrenaline because it increases the contractile strength of muscles temporarily--it's common to assume that the hormones work together. In reality, testosterone is a steroid hormone that exerts long-term effects over development and physiological function. Adrenaline, on the other hand, has short-term effects, and does not show cooperation with testosterone.

I' googled it and everyone is saying no. I get ringworm often and I use different cream each time. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. Recently I got ringworm again and developed over time from size of a quarter to size of half of my body. Most of the time I just left it alone and it'll go away by itself. This time I use clobetasol propionate twice I think and it worked for me. So maybe try it once and see if it works.

* Absolutely not! Prednisone for humans has to be monitored closely and the side effects with some people can be unpleasant. Take your dog to the vet! It's cheaper in the long wrong. NEVER use human medications on any of your pets. * From another source: Actually whether its 5 mg or 20 mg of prednisone, prednisone is prednisone. In some cases depending on where you are (what country) if your pet was prescribed prednisone there wouldn't be any "special beef flavored" variety, they'd be given the exact same tablet you would be taking if you had gotten a prescription for yourself the same day. Please see a vet, however. Prednisone does more harm than good if not given correctly, and sometimes additional tests are needed to check general health, etc before starting a prednisone regimen. But as for the simple question of "can it be done", certainly it can, it is the same chemical. The point the above answer could have made more clearly is that it should not be given if you do not know what you are doing. Unfortunately, some people do not have access to vets, and I understand that. In that case the internet is a great source of information, although it can also be a source of misinformation. Be careful in any case.

No. Steroids are used to allow the muscle tissue to hold more water and aid in synthesizing proteins and formation of glycogen. This retention of water allows the muscle to also become more oxygenated, all of which gives a strenght increase as well as size increase. Growth as far as (tall or short) are defined by your DNA Dioxyribonuclaic Acid, your genetic code. Using steroids to increase mass beyond what your natural body will allow, will of course give you that wider, bulkier look. This bulky and wide look from steroid use can have an optical illusion effect of looking shorter than you really are. It actually happened to me...After a season of heavy steroid use and weight training 7 days a week for a couple of years, I was very massive and very defined as well, (kinda what you see in a body builder magazine). A friend of mine took a pic of me solo and a female who I did'nt know asked him how tall I was, he replied 5' 11"...She said hmm, he only looks like 5'7". There is one caveat though, taking steroids and getting stronger means lifting heavier weights...this can cause spinal compression and hurt the discs, while it is temporary compression that can be fixed from days off, relaxation and sleep, you could actually measure yourself to be about 1/2" shorter by the end of day. The next day after proper rest without lifting you would gain that 1/2" back as your spine decrompresses itself.

Steroids / steroidal drugs should only be taken on the advice of a doctor or other recognised medical professional. You should also be aware that they are an illegal or controlled substance if obtained without a prescription.

As such the only way you should be in possession of steroids is after having them prescribed to you.

If after reading the information / instruction leaflet that came with your medication, you still have questions then you should either return to your doctor or consult a pharmaceutical chemist who should also be able to give you advice.

As for how steroidal medications are administered they may either be in the form of a tablet / capsule or an injection.

Although there is nothing in steroids which gets you physically addicted to them. But there is a huge mental addiction towards steroid due to the feeling of confidence, the false high you feel, the strength and weight gained and more.

Yes. small quantity of estrogen and testosterone is secreted by the adrenal cortex. This little quantity of estrogen play very important role in males. The little quantity of testosterone in females play very important role in females. They give integrity to that particular sex.

I would say not too not every one will b the same. But i was on predisone. For the 2nd time and was on the 2nd day off and was taking ibp 800 mg 3 every 4 hrs. And it caused me to lose my memory, and flip out bad . And really massed me up. Told my doc after that i was taking the ibp 800mg . Instead, of the valium cause i was taking two many a day for me i felt. So i took ibp instead for a break. And he told me that predisone, and ibp was dangerous together. So did the pharmacists. I would b careful.

you have more chance of winning the lottery than injecting into a blood vessel.. hitting one is a different story.. while you have thousands upon thousands, wherever you inject, we're talking about a needle that's extremely tiny in width and a surface area smaller than 1mm.. in fact, the needle itself whilst being tiny is probably bigger than the blood vessel, so you're just going to break through it - which in most cases is just going to cause acute pain and possibly some extra bleeding (if any). no biggie, you're not going to die..

Data on anabolic steroid use in sports is hard to come by as they are banned in most sports. But there are many different types of steroids so they are used in a broad spectrum of sports. Steroids that help with endurance can be used in sports like distance running and swimming. Steroids assoisciated with strength will be used in sports such as weightlifting and wrestling. Others are used to increase muscle size and mass, these would be used in sports like bodybuilding. So in answer to your question anabolic steroids are commonly used in many sports and are not more highly assosciated with any one sport in particular.

Steroids where origionaly developed in Germany as far back as world war 1. They where originally produced to treat German soldiers who'd suffered from dehydration and weight loss, but a study also found they make humans aggressive and also confident. In the Second World War the German Nazi soldiers where given doses of steroids.

In some males, prolonged use of Anabolic Androgenic Steroids, male patern balding can occur, acne, high blood pressure, shrinking on the testes, heart attack, hormone imbalance, impotency and mood changes. Now while these negative things CAN happen, the chances of these noy happening whrn AAD are not abused and used correctly/intelligently is there as well.

Yes, it is. And a dangerous one at that if it's taken without proper medical clearance and instruction. DO NOT TAKE IT IF YOU DON'T HAVE PROPER MEDICAL CLEARANCE AND INSTRUCTION. It will do you no good, and in the end, do you harm.

Steroids are prescribed to fight some infections in the body (such as rheumatoid arthritis).

Anabolic means muscle growth, so anabolic steroids are the type of steroids use to build muscle, the type bodybuilders and sportspeople use. Normal steroids are ones that doctors prescribe to help with certain viruses etc, they do not promote muscle growth but are used as cures for certain things.

Yes.Every wrestling league besides stuff like UFC,IFl or other mixed marshall arts and boxing leagues are fake.And so every superstar in WWE,ECW,WCW and TNA

Anabolic steroids can cause many adverse effects. Most of these side effects are dose-dependent, the most common being elevated blood pressure, especially in those with pre-existing hypertension, and harmful changes in cholesterol levels. Short-term usage is generally limited to few side effects, as with many other types of drugs:

* Some steroids cause an increase in LDL cholesterol and a decrease in HDL cholesterol. * Anabolic steroids have been shown to alter fasting blood sugar and glucose tolerance tests. * Acne is fairly common among anabolic steroid users, mostly due to stimulation of the sebaceous glands by increased testosterone levels. The largest problems occur over long-term usage, especially in adolescence, and can range from heart disease to stunted growth.

Different painkillers have different side effects.

For example the side effects of tramadol can be headache, drowsiness, constipation, nausea.

The side effects of codeine can be drowsiness, light headedness, dizziness, sedation, shortness of breath

It depends on whether you are talking about corticosteroids or anabolic steroids. Corticosteroids are widely used in medicine. It is similar to glucocorticoids like cortisol that is produced by your adrenal gland. Corticosteroids basically suppress the immune system and inflammation. So it is useful for inflammatory diseases where the root cause cannot be removed in order for the inflammation to subside. It is also used for autoimmune diseases where the body's immune system attacks the healthy tissues thereby causing inflammation. These are just some of the medical uses of steroids. There are many others.

Yes, ciprofloxacin and prednisone can generally be taken together, as there are no direct interactions between the two medications. However, it's important to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations and inform them about all medications you are taking. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist if you have any concerns or experience side effects.
